PK39594: RUNNING QCF BATCH IQCABAT0 THE GENERATED JCL FOR THE DATASET VOLUME IS NOT CORRECT AFTER THE DS HAS BEEN SMS RESTORED

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Running IQCABAT0 the SLDS data set name and volume are obtained
  from DBRC and stored in the generated JCL.  The JCL generated
  volume is sometimes wrong because after SMS restores the
  data set, the volume is usually different after the SMS restore
  of the data set.  This causes the JCL to be incorrectly built
  since it hasn't retrieved the correct (new) volume name from
  the system catalog.
  
  Additional Issue Addressed:
  When " DSN=**** COMPRESSED DATA SET **** " is encountered
  in a DSN (due to PRILOG compression removing unneeded
  DSN entries), an information message will be issued.
